9.2 Becoming a College of ECE Member

Once you have completed the ECE Diploma Program and have your ECE Diploma (final transcript), you now must register with The College of Early Childhood Education (CECE) in order to work as an early years professional and call yourself an Early Childhood Educator (RECE) in the Province of Ontario.

 

First Step

Once you have completed the ECE Diploma and are ready to Graduate, you are required to submit an Intent to Graduate form (scroll down to the bottom of the page).

Second Step

The CECE has a new member section on their website that includes a webinar to walk you through the registration process.

Third Step

Once your paperwork is processed with the Registrar’s office, usually within 10 business days, you will request an electronic transcript from MYCREDS to go directly to the CECE. Before requesting your transcript, check on Webadvisor to see if your transcript shows “graduated.”
